Our Verdict

Logitech G203 Prodigy

Razer DeathAdder V2

The Logitech G203 Prodigy and the Razer DeathAdder V2 are both great FPS gaming mice, but the Razer performs a bit better overall. The Razer feels more comfortable, and its shape is great for most hand sizes and grip types. It also has a wider CPI range, lower lift-off distance, and more programmable inputs. That said, the G203 is a little smaller and narrower, and it has an ambidextrous design that's well-suited for a fingertip grip. Both options are fairly lightweight.
